Email is always the best way. Like you, I always use the non response technique and it usually works!

As for your situation, I think the whole "I value your friendship BUT" thing stings. I have had it used on me before and it hurts for some reason. Maybe because I know the person who is saying it is not being sincere.

Could you just send an email saying that life is hectic now, you have no time for a lot of things, and take care? He has to get the hint from that! I'm a firm believer in letting someone save face and since he obviously likes you and you don't like him, I feel the friendship line may be a bit patronizing. But this is just me, I am very sensitive!
